How sad that so much of it is missing, a date that affected many shows of the time, including Doctor Who, let's hope some are found in the future, a few have surfaced over the years. Mr Crispin is a thug who thinks violence will solve a problem, Mrs Crispin is a snob and their daughter Norma is constantly being stalked by men. The picture and sound quality could benefit from a clean up but I suppose it's better to have this than nothing at all.

It's a shame that at least the two existing episodes from later series that the BBC hold* haven't been included, (3/7; Escort Duty and 5/3; It Never Rains, along with the extant 1964 Christmas Night With The Stars sketch), but well done Simply for getting these twenty episodes out. What you actually get over the three discs is series 1 episodes 1-8 (episode 9 is missing from the archives) and series 2 complete episodes 1-12. This sitcom sees the unlikely twosome encounter all sorts of scrapes and mishaps as bully boy Terry pursues wealth and glory, with the kind but dim-witted Hugh trailing along behind.

Life at 33 Lobelia Avenue, Tooting is not what it seems as two friends muddle their way out of trouble of their own making. Mr Crispin is a loud mouth who thinks violence will solve a problem, Mrs Crispin is a snob and their daughter Norma is constantly chased after by men. When that convict escapes a few weeks later, he comes to Terry's house armed with a gun and takes them all hostage. Terry intends on playing Charades, but confusion among the guests continuously scuppers his efforts. He fails to sell a policy to both sets of neighbours, but the man he does sell a policy to is injured when Terry's sign falls on him, so is able to make a claim.This leads to the new sink being put on a removals lorry going to Leeds, and Hugh fusing the electricity in a number of houses and making a hole in a water pipe. It's a very funny series, I hadn't seen a single episode, but stumbled on it by accident, I've binge watched most of it, I found it very original, funny, and way ahead of its time. Read all Terry Scott is a youngish bachelor who wants to achieve wealth without putting in any hard work. It's the day of Terry's cousin Ivy's wedding, and he has been volunteered by her mother Mavis to host the wedding reception, without letting him know in advance.
